A pair OF "crooks" are now pssiuring in
the fat places OF this county. Several days
ago store In Mt. Joy was visited by a sleek
looking individual who wanted to confuse
the clerk in the change OF q twenty-dollar
bill After he had selected a pair OF gloves.
The clerk was aware Of the game about being
played upon him and so discounted the
scoundrel that he lef. without the gloves or
the price OF them.
On Mondsy the same party drove to Lititz.
Almost every business place in town was

known only one person admits having been
caught, and that was Samuel Delbo, who is

His plan Of operation was the same as at Mt.
Joy. He presented ten dollar bill in pay
ment which Delbo changed by giving five
dollar note and four and half dollars in
silver. "Here, l have found q half
dollar" remarked the stranger. "Surpose
you let me have the ten-doIlsr note for the

LUCK WAS AGAINST THEM
Two Unfortunate Mishaps Cause the
Home Club to Lose Another Game.
They Make Twice as Many Hits as the Chi
Cages but the Visitors Get one More
Run-0ther Games Yesterday.
Chicago Defeats. Indianapolis.


The game between che Chicago and IndianaD
oils clubs yesterday afternoon was a close, wells
played and interestin g contest and notwith-
standing the fact that the visitors won, it was
the kind Of a game that people like to see and
was therefore enjoyed. 1t seems inevitable
that wherever bad luck enters into game In
dianapolis gets the worst of it. The grounds
were exceedingly slippery and wet. which
caused both Healy and Denny to slip and fall
down in efforts to handle the ball, both runners
getting to first in consequence and both scoring.
able mishaps Indianapolis would have won, but
their well-knovn bad luck was. az usual. with
them Aside from these two plays the
work Of both sides was excellent Van Haltren
was hit hard and often enough to entitle the
Hoosiers to a victory. while Healey held the
Windy City players down to hits and
piched most excellent game. The grounds
were too slippery to permit OF much base ste al.
ing, and 10 was only attempted two three
times during the game. Petit and Tebeau. the
two additions to the Cbicagos, made their
first appearance in indianapolis and showed. up in
good form. Chicago has evidently picked I'D two
good in them. Indianapolis scored two
runs in the second singles by McGeachy
and Bsssett ard HacKetts Dagger, one in
the fourth singles by McGeachy and Hack
EFT. Bassett's sacrifice and Pfeffers
muf, and one in the sixth on
Denny's two Dagger McGeachy's sacrifice and
Bsssett's hy to Burns. Chicago scored one in
the second on Denny's error, he falling down on
the slippery ground. in getting the ball, Healy's

WASHINGTON. Oct. 1.-The New York and
Was hinRton teams played another model and
interesting game here to-day. AS in Yesterdays
contest both pitchers were very effective. and as
they were supported in good style the runs were
few and far between. In the second inning
O'Brien lifted the ball over the
left-held fence, making his seven
teenth homo run of the season. A single
by Gillespie and Richardson's three Dagger
tied the score in the visitors half of the same
inning. New York took the lead in the fourth
inning, scoring uneRrned hit by
Connor, error by Myers and a passed ball
Two bases on balls, a single and Wards error
enabled the home team to tie the score again in
the sixth inning. In the same inning. however,
New York again forged ahead making ono run.
on n force-out, q passed ball aud Raineys
single. In the ninth inning matters looked blue
flor the home team, but O'Brien again came to
the rescue, by driving the ball tho fence,
which tiedsthe score. This makes his eighteenth
home run. leading Conner, who is next. by one
point The game called at the end of the
ninth inning on account OF darkness Score:
